Who wrote 'Snowbound'?

• A. Longfellow
• B. Burns
• C. Holmes
• D. Whittier

Answer: (D)

Snowbound is a long poem by John Greenleaf Whittier, a 19th‑century American poet associated with the Fireside Poets. Written in 1866, it depicts a New England farmhouse during a heavy snowstorm and uses that winter scene to reflect on home, family, faith, and endurance. The other poets listed are known for different works or origins—Longfellow for various American narrative poems, Burns as a Scottish poet, and Holmes for different pieces—so Whittier is the correct author for this poem.
